Mud\earth Bricks can be enjoyed by everyone everywhere. They
are often referred to as "Adobe", relating to the
feature of it being a 'sun dried brick'. Any structure built
with mud\earth bricks is capable of lasting for centuries
simply by addressing some of the following:
- Correct design incorporating
style, weather protection and orientation.
- Sound construction methods.
The bricks we have made have been
strong and durable, They are environmentally friendly, hygienic,
great insulators against heat and cold, fire resistant and
sound proof. As far as can be determined, termites do not
build their tunnels in mud\earth brick walls. Mud\earth bricks
do not absorb moisture.
With good brick
manufacturing techniques, there will be no objection from
planning authorities against the construction of mud\earth
brick homes.
We get our bricks compressive strength
tested to ensure structural compliance.
Our stabilised mud\earth bricks
have been averaging 18MPa . The unstabilised mud bricks average
2MPa both well above the standard requirements.
Our research has helped us to establish
confidently the art of utilising differing soil types to enable
the correct manufacture of our mud\earth
bricks.
